Extreme traffic congestion near the road under bridge (RUB) of Malakpet is inching towards resolution thanks to the proposed vent soon to be constructed by the South Central Railway.
A second railway vent was proposed in addition to the existing one for free traffic flow on either side of the road so as to ease the congestion near Malakpet and Chaderghat.
The narrow RUB portion is mediated every day by thousands of vehicles both ways — towards Dilsukhnagar and Chaderghat. The condition has worsened after the construction of a Metro Rail station at the location, resulting in vehicle slowdown irrespective of the time of the day.
